textures

qinetiq: textures - experimental/ambient [2020]

for this album i really started exploring unique sonic textures, hence the name. this album was where i actually started purposefully composing songs and designing synths with a purpose in mind rather than experimentation. i also started delving deeper into effects and routing configurations, which helped give these mixes a little more life. at this point i still was mostly stuck on a single pattern per song, without any changes or new additions beyond selective muting. i did begin using more automation across longer timescales, which helps animate the music a little bit more than previous works.
